If you need me to I can move this to success stories but I didn't know which one to put it on so I just thought I would put it here for now.
I know like many of you I always wonder what people did different the cycle they got there bfp and most of them say, I just relaxed and didn't think about it, That answer drove me crazy and I can honestly say I did do stuff different the cycle I got my Bfp so I just wanted to share with you ladies.

1. I used Internet cheapie ovulation prediction kit twice a day to make srue I caught my surge
2. We BD ALOT (pretty much every day for like 6 days before I got a positive opk and two days after)
3. I used instead cups the day I got a pos. opk and the two following days)
4. I took prenatals everyday
5. I used geritol tonic (yes it is absolutly DISGUSTING to swallow but if you can handle it, they say there is a baby in every bottle)

So thats what I did! I Can't wait to see lots of bfp's from all of you wonderful ladies!
And if you are in teh 2ww and feel like y ou are giving up hope cuz you dont' have any symptoms, don't worry cuz I totally thought I had missed it last cycle SO HOLD ON TO YOUR HOPE! I know you will all get BFP'S very soon!

What is geritol tonic? ((lol, never heard of it before...))

[Brittney06]

its basically a liquid vitamin I think it is actually for old people, but I read about it on another board and decided to try it, I don't know to much about it but I have read that a lot of people get pregnant on it. It comes in a pill form and a liquid form but they have different stuff in it and I couldn't find anything on the pill so I stuck to the yucky liquid form.

Hmm...maybe I am desperate enough for the Geritol. Where did you buy it? Is the liquid supposed to be better than the pills or is it all the same?

[Brittney06]

WALMART lol I buy everything at wal mart I swear it was with all the vitamin stuff.
And like i was saying I really don't know if they are the same cuz i know i read the ingredients and they looked totally different to me so I am not sure I will look around on the internet and see if i can find out for you though

i think this is the perfect place for this post. it's the ttc-ers who want to know what to do different!

[Eleysia]

I just wanted to say i heard that the tonic is more effective than the pills

[LindsLuvsSi]

I wanted to add that I got my BFP using instead cups too and BDing every other day. Good luck ladies~

[mamamudd]

If anyone knows if it is possible to buy this online please let me know. I would love to try it even if you all say it tastes horrible.

Hi, thx for the info......so glad it worked for you!!
one question - what are instead cups? sorry never heard of them and what do you use them for??
you girls are awesome!! I love that you can ask anything here even if it's a dumb question??!! Thx again

[Brittney06]

I found this website to buy online, i think you just click on which store you want to buy it from

Instead cups are actually menstrual flow cups so instead of using a tampoon you slid this cup in up where your cervix is and it sits there and catches your flow, it is suppouse to work a lot better than a tampoon,
Us ttc ladies use instead cups to hold the semen in close to your cervix so after you dtd you slide it in and it holds the semen up there so you don't leak as much.
There is no proof that this helps in conception but if you are like many of us you will try just about anything to get that bfp as fast as you can!
